I joined this gym in August 2011, as it was a good value and fit my needs. The price is $9 per month.

I re-injured my back and can no longer work out, so in October I went to Fitness 19(North Babylon), well before the 15th of the month, and cancelled my membership. I was told at that time, I would be charged for October, and November, and then the payments would cease. Why I am being charged an extra $9 is not understood. Well when I looked at my cc statement there is a double charge for Fitness 19.

The $9 payment, and $19 for the yearly maintenance fee. I called, and of course there is "No record" of this ever taking place, but (Kelly) will look into it.(yeah right). I looked for my receipt and I cannot find it, lost in the construction maze. Really how hard is it to look at a book of receipts for October(2011) and see that there is one in there from me.

So again I had to go down and re-cancel the membership. This form states it will be cancelled in 30 days from today, so that is February 5th 2012. And I should NOT be charged for February 2012. Let's see I am out $45 from them.

I am pissed.

Stay away. Keep your receipts.

Fitness 19 closed the gym by my house where I joined. I got no phone calls or notice.

But they were still charging my charge card. I was told by a friend that I could go to the one two towns over. Or I could just drive there to cancel my membership. I'm sorry, but I didn't have a membership with the one two towns away, I signed a contract for the one around the corner.

So I contacted my credit card company and told them the story and every month they still try and charge my card. Today they called and said that I have a month to month contract with them and I have to go in to cancel or send a certified letter canceling. I am pissed! I signed a contract with this one not the one two towns away.

I couldn't go there to work out when this one was open! How is this legal??? And how many other people are they screwing? I can't imagine how much money they are making on this technicality.

It's not right and it shouldn't be allowed to happen.

That is why I don't let anyone in my bank account. At least my charge card is backing me up on this dispute.

Fitness 19 has been screwing me since july! i signed up for a membership and came in with a coupon they handed out saying no membership fees if you signed up with a friend..

They screwed me and charged my card 150 dollars and then when i went away to college and didnt cancel it before i left they made me write a letter. I have written 5 letters since that point and called over 10 times!! The manager Mike from san clemente is a blockheaded CROOK! I have lost over 250$ to a *** gym!

Somebody should go to court with these people I have seen thousands of reviews of people expressing the same thing as me! They don't honor cancellation!
